I don't object to the basic idea of these patches, but...as I'm sure
you can imagine, this stuff will conflict hard with the work I'm trying
to prepare for submission.  I, too, have had to go in to those
functions and do things like add locking.  Is there any chance you
could hold off for just a *little* bit while I get things together?  

As I said before, I was traveling this last week.  Now I'm home and can
get back to this...

Thanks,

jon
